Poll
Question:
Do you want "Massive Demo" to be released?
Option 1: Yes, I want to play it
votes: 5
Option 2: No, I want to wait for the full game
votes: 5
Option 3: I don't care
votes: 1
Now, I've been wondering how many people would actually want that. What that is?
- Chaos Project - Demo: This is less than 10% of the game. The game ends after the boss battle against the blue woman in Lisk Forest.
- Chaos Project - Enhanced Demo: This is about 25% of the story, the game ends after Jason leaves Endout and Lilith behind. The first version didn't have SRS yet, it was added in a later version. In fact this version didn't have even 1% of the scripts that are being used now.
- Chaos Project - Final Demo: This is a version, supposed to be the last demo release of the game. Storywise it goes up to the same point like the Enhanced Demo, but scriptwise it is much more enhanced. Later versions of it had huge script updates.
- The Legend of Lexima IV - Chaos Project (Massive Demo): Now this would be a release that has about 50% of the game and even more script updates. The story goes to the point after Jason and Endout find out that they have been used by Nemesis and after a successful fight against Faberell, they decide the go after him and his henchmen.
The question is: How many people would be interested to play it? If this is to be released, the game would need the alpha testing finished and a beta testing before the first release.
Poll closes in 7 days.
I'd like it released *votes*
I did play past that, thanks to you, but I still want to play the demo.
@Blizzard I also would like to play past that. I'll help you beta test/
Since I have two helping hands in mapping the next release could still be the full game instead of a massive demo. Let's see how much people want it and how quickly the rest of the game progresses. :)
No no no...Much of the story has already been released. His demo's that have been released, have done what DEMO's are suppossed to do. You all WANT to play this new one....(Quote, buy, print) He has you hooked!!!!!
WAIT WAIT WAIT!! No more needs to be revealed until the release of the actual game...
P.S. Great job Blizz ;D
In fact, when you play the game up to 50%, there is just enough revealed to hook the player even more.
Quote from: me from aboveThe story goes to the point after Jason and Endout find out that they have been used by Nemesis and after a successful fight against Faberell, they decide the go after him and his henchmen.
Of course the scenario when that happens is just great. Not much action, but simply the events... You're like "OMG NO WTF" all the time. FTS most probably can confirm that. :P
Hmm...
Well I still vote no.
All Demo's from major game companies actually control about 10% of the game's actual story, or none of it at all, and just teaches the player how to work the funcions of the game.
You've already surpassed that much, and I don't think you NEED another Demo. However, it's entirely up to you, and I will keep my vote NO.
P.S. I still think you're making an awesome game!!
I just want to see the opinion of the people, it's not like if most people vote for "Yes" that I will actually do it. I have now two mappers who assist me which could speed up the development heavily. If the mapping gets done within 2 or 3 months I can concentrate another month on scripts and functionality. Then comes the beta testing and the release. Let's see how it turns out.
EDIT:
OMG THIS IS MY 666th POST
EDIT:
Did you know that 666 * 2 = 1332 which is just 5 less than 1337? xD *stops being offtopic*
I see...
Alright, now I can suggest where you're coming from...
BTW:
This is really creepy!!
Today you just posted your 666th post, well I watched the movie "Constantine" today, and right after that, the excorcism of Emily Rose cam on, and right now, courage the cowardly dog is having a show dealing with muriel being possessed!!
lol
anyway I voted last night for yes but I do think Calintz has some valid points and also I would like only if could play demo if be able to keep saves so I probably would go no because you'll have a few changes ect
In fact, this is one of my greatest concerns. So far, the save game updater works without any problems. Final Demo to "next release" updates run smoothly. But if I release another demo, it will limit the number of maps I actually can edit and the event systems in there and blablablah. In any case, I'd have a harder time in keeping consistency. But since I've got a new mapper who's already working hard, CP might be done earlier than I expected which would make another release unnecessary.
yeah than I think don't worry about it btw who are your mappers they good as you?
May I dare to say better than me? At least I know that he got out a lot and I mean really A LOT of the rather poor modern city tileset I gave him. It looked great. It's the new guy Peter, BTW, the one with the event ABS.
yeah I know him chat to him on MSN sometimes
Hmm...
*Calintz ponders whether or not to start using MSN Messenger again*
I used to use that all the time, but now I don't.
you should me and you can learn how to script together quickly with it :)
Lol, that might really actually help, though I'm sure you are still more advanced than I... ;D
*Goes to dwnld Messenger*

Alright >> Derek16438@Hotmail.com
no more demos your next release should be the full and completed game (or the batat version for them testers)
I can go either way honestly, I'm really curious as to how the story is going to play out, and it'd be cool to see more of the game (Other than seeing some of the stuff from the old ass beta I got of Final Demo)
QuoteNot much action, but simply the events... You're like "OMG NO WTF" all the time. FTS most probably can confirm that.
And not to mention, I just LOVE the scripting and music. Hey Bliz, if you release the massive demo, will you release the CPMS? Or do you want to keep it for the full game? Cause I was in ecstacy when I played the project you gave me and CPMS had a lot to do with that.
what;s this new CMS he has?
Chaos Project Message System. And yeah, it will be released then. You should see how I display characters who talk, it's unlike every other message system. (^_^) It's slightly instable and inaccurate right now as it needs quite some custom adjustment, so I need to test it more.
Yeah, lot's of times, different events were highlighted. But heck,
QuoteI was in ecstacy when I played the project you gave me and CPMS had a lot to do with that.
Sounds like something to look forward to...
